Matsushima, Miyagi Shokado Confectionery Shop

#JanuaryGoodPlaces2025 Located opposite the boarding point for the Matsushima patrol boat is an antique tea shop. The first floor is the Matsushima Snow Bamboo House, and you have to go to the second floor to find the fruit shop. It is a century-old shop. I was very lucky that day and was arranged to sit by the window, where I could enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Matsushima coast. I ordered the signature pudding and honey cake, and a cup of black coffee. The pudding has a classic Japanese tea shop flavor, with slightly bitter caramel sauce drizzled on the harder pudding; the honey cake is made only with wheat, milk, eggs and honey, and has a simple yet monotonous flavor, and has a solid texture. The store also sells some souvenirs, such as black bean tea and honey biscuits. A trip to Songdo is a good place to rest and relax while enjoying the sea view. 🕰️Business hours: 10:00 - 17:30 (Closed on Tuesdays) 📍Address: 2F, 109, Matsushima-cho, Miyagi-gun, Miyagi Prefecture 💞Recommended food: honey cake. pudding
